Arboviral Encephalitis

Zika Virus Infection is an arboviral disease that is particularly serious for fetuses and can result in brain damage and birth defects such as microcephaly which is an infant born with an abnormally small head. Most people infected with Zika virus typically do not have serious symptoms, such as a fever or rash. 

Zika Virus Infection

Rabies is a disease caused by the rabies virus. It is primarily transmitted through animal bites. If not treated in the early stages, it is always fatal. 

Rabies

Poliomyelitis or polio is caused by the poliovirus. This is a disease that if it spreads to the brain causes paralysis and death. 

Poliomyelitis (Polio)

Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies is a disease caused by prions. There are multiple transmissible spongiform encephalopathies that cause neurological infections.
